Job summary

Alice & Bob invites a master’s student in microwave RF/related field to join as an RF Sub Systems Design & Characterization Intern in Paris. You will work under senior engineers to design, test, and validate RF hardware spanning room temperature to cryogenics, contributing prototypes, data collection, and automation of test workflows.

The role focuses on three topics: cryogenic bias tee footprint reduction, RF readout chain optimization at room temp and at cryogenic temperatures, and integration

Qualifications

• Engineering or master's student (4-5 years of higher education) specializing in microwave frequencies, RF electronics, telecommunications, or related fields.
• Solid understanding of RF systems, S-Parameters, and wave propagation.
• Experience with RF test equipment, signal characterization and analysis techniques (VNA, Spectrum Analyzer, oscilloscope).
• Experience with RF CAD tools (HFSS, Keysight ADS).
• Familiarity with Python for RF data analysis and post-processing.

Responsibilities

• Integrate and test control electronics and instrumentation with the help of senior engineers.
• Characterize, simulate, and design RF hardware at room temperature and cryogenic temperatures.
• Rapidly design and prototype sub-systems for qubit control within cryostat racks.
• Analyze RF component manufacturing technologies for performance and feasibility.
• Assist with test bench setup, cabling, equipment maintenance and monitoring.
• Perform lab measurements using RF bench equipment (VNA and analyzers).
• Define, optimize, and automate test programs to qualify system hardware conformity.
• Prepare complete, well-documented test plans and reports.
